These won't work:

Hi Kristi, I thought I should verify this cover as pink. If her skin isn't pink enough perhaps her lips are? Thanks

No, sorry, Sheila. Really going for pink-pink here rather than flesh-toned.

OK Kristi, thanks. I'll keep looking.

Is the hat on this cover pink enough, or is it too purple?

This is definitely a task where I can switch things if need be, but I was just wondering since the book sounded good!

Looks like there's pink and purple in there. It works.

Would work? The letters are a kind of salmon pink color.

Bea wrote: "Would work? The letters are a kind of salmon pink color."

Looks pink to me.

Thanks Kristi!

Yes, they do! And, yes, pink letters are fine.

Would you say the girl's dress is pink?

Looks pink to me. There's pink in one of the sails, too, so you're good!

thank you

Looking for approval on this one - I can't tell if the main color is purple or pink, but there are some lighter spots in the center that seem clearly pink when I blow it up:

Hi, would this one work? (the letters look pink)
If not, then this one?

Either one will work.

Ok I must not like pink! Do any of these work?
or

Not sure how much pink u want

Cindy AL wrote: "Ok I must not like pink!"

That's so funny. I think my TBR might be 1/5 pink... haha! That's what happens when you read romance novels and YA fiction, I guess! ;)

Just wanted to check a few...

I apparently don't have that many pink covers on my TBR either!

Does have enough pink?

This has pink on it, but it's a darker looking pink in the online picture than on the book. Just making sure it's OK, since I don't want it rejected due to shading problems.

Unlike most cover tasks which require at least half the cover to be the target color, this one just requires any pink on the cover. isn't really pink, though, more flesh-colored. However, either or will work.

Her dress appears to be pink so, yes, it works.

They all work. Now you just have to pick one. ;-)

I have had preferences in mind. Adding all of them was just a precaution :). Thank you.
